Opera adds local AI to its browsers

Opera began shipping local AI models in its browsers as an early preview in Opera One, with Opera GX and Opera Neon to follow, using the WebAI standard to let sites and extensions run open models such as Google's Gemma and, on Macs, Apple's on-device model. WebAI is opt-in with site-specific permissions, and Opera also launched HTML-in-Canvas, which places interactive web pages inside 2D and 3D scenes.
